I try to use:
action.sendKeys("some phrase with a dot, for example: www.google.co.il ");
but when i run the program what the action writes is:
www*google*co*il
the * represent hebrew character.
I can disable this only by disabling the hebrew language in my computer.
I tried to bypass the problem by using JS: set.attribute but it makes a lot of problems and i need something better.
Is there a function similar to sendkeys or a way to fix it?
You can try JavascriptExecuter using below code:
WebElement text= driver.findElement(By.name("q"));
JavascriptExecutor jsExecutor = (JavascriptExecutor) driver;
jsExecutor.executeScript("arguments[0].value='test input';", text);
Webelement is the textbox where your need to write the value.
Or you can try some copy paste action after clicking into text box.
actions.click();

I found out a way to change language during the tests while I solved another problem related to Upload a picture. there is this freeware called AuTOIT that you can use to help you with dialogs on Windows. I wrote a script to push the alt and click shift and my language is changed.
To change the language, I use the line:
Runtime.getRuntime().exec("path_of_script_here/name_of_script_here.exe");
The script was made the following way:
Open a text file.
Inside the file write:
Send ("{ALTDOWN}") ;Hold down Alt
Sleep(100) ;Wait 100 milliseconds
Send("{LSHIFT}{ALTUP}") ;Press Left-Shift and release Alt
Save as .au3 file.
Download and install AUTOIT.
Compile the script and then exe file will be created.
Run the test.
Hope this will help everyone else who encounters this problem. If something is not clear, ask me and I will gladly help.

How can I create a directory chooser in html page.
If I use input file element I can select file only, but I need to select directory instead.
I need to do this beacause the user should select a right path inside his computer.
Any solutions ?
Try this, I think it will work for you:
<input type="file" webkitdirectory directory multiple/>
You can find the demo of this at https://plus.google.com/+AddyOsmani/posts/Dk5UhZ6zfF3 ,
and if you need further information you can find it
here.
Can't be done in pure HTML/JavaScript for security reasons.
Selecting a file for upload is the best you can do, and even then you won't get its full original path in modern browsers.
You may be able to put something together using Java or Flash (e.g. using SWFUpload as a basis), but it's a lot of work and brings additional compatibility issues.
Another thought would be opening an iframe showing the user's C: drive (or whatever) but even if that's possible nowadays (could be blocked for security reasons, haven't tried in a long time) it will be impossible for your web site to communicate with the iframe (again for security reasons).
What do you need this for?
As of 2022 there is now a directory picker API:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/showDirectoryPicker
async function getDir() {
const dirHandle = await window.showDirectoryPicker();
// run code for dirHandle
}
In case if you are the server and the user (e.g. you are creating an app which works via browser and you need to choose a folder) then try to call JFileChooser from the server when some button is clicked in the browser
JFileChooser chooser = new JFileChooser();
chooser.setCurrentDirectory(new java.io.File("."));
chooser.setDialogTitle("select folder");
chooser.setFileSelectionMode(JFileChooser.DIRECTORIES_ONLY);
chooser.setAcceptAllFileFilterUsed(false);
This code snipped is from here
This is my solution. It is the same as the above answers but you should notice that webkitdirectory = "true".
<input id="design" type="file" webkitdirectory = "true" directory/>
I did a work around. I had a hidden textbox to hold the value. Then, on form_onsubmit,
I copied the path value, less the file name to the hidden folder. Then, set the fileInput box to "". That way, no file is uploaded.
I don't recall the event of the fileUpload control. Maybe onchange. It's been a while. If there's a value, I parse off the file name and put the folder back to the box. Of, course you'd validate that the file as a valid file.
This would give you the clients workstation folder.
However, if you want to reflect server paths, that requires a whole different coding approach.
This isn't provided by HTML because of the security risk. <input type='file' /> is closest, but not what you are looking for.
If you're still using IE11 on Windows 10, you may try this example that uses an ActiveX control to achieve what you want.
Again if the OS is Windows, you can use VB scripts to access the core control files to browse for a folder.
If you do not have too many folders then I suggest you use if statements to choose an upload folder depending on the user input details.
E.g.
String user= request.getParameter("username");
if (user=="Alfred"){
//Path A;
}
if (user=="other"){
//Path B;
}
I would like to show POP UP with message when my test runs successful. Pls suggest sikuli script for this.
As #autoKarma suggested, you can easily use the popup() function. I have been working with sikuli quite a while. You can see this simple code below.
popup("Display your message here")
That's it. This simple code would serve your purpose.
Goodluck
Have you tried using the popup() function? It is documented here. I don't know anything about sikuli's interaction with webdriver, so take it for whatever its worth.
variable = input("message", "default", "titleOfPopup")
I am trying to open HTML file from the local URI which I use as XML Editor, to edit xml data that come from Silverlight application, then close browser window and return back edited xml data to the Silverlight application.
I tried to use HtmlPage.Window.Navigate but I don't quit like it.
I have tried using a method from: http://weblogs.asp.net/dwahlin/archive/2010/05/10/integrating-html-into-silverlight-applications.aspx
but instanly got an exception "failed to invoke ShowJobPlanIFrame"
Is there any way to handle this task?
"Out of browser" mode doesn't fit.
Thanks.
===========================================================================
Update:
It worked out using IFrame overlay.
Button click invokes the following code in C#:
var scriptObject = (ScriptObject)HtmlPage.Window.GetProperty("ShowJobPlanIFrame");
scriptObject.InvokeSelf(url);
Where "ShowJobPlanIFrame" is as defined at:
http://weblogs.asp.net/dwahlin/archive/2010/05/10/integrating-html-into-silverlight-applications.aspx
This allowed me to pass data into XML editor and then get it back.
An error with JavaScript function invocation I told above, was my fault in JavaScript code itself.
A very similar scenario: https://stackoverflow.com/a/7919065/384316
Try using an iframe overlay, then you can load any HTML-like content.
There is an excellent explanation of how to do this here:

Did you try NavigationFramework of Silverlight? It's capability may support your needs in a more simple way than using multiple browser pages.
I'm using Dashcode for a mobile Safari web application and from the documentation (https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/AppleApplications/Conceptual/Dashcode_UserGuide/Contents/Resources/en.lproj/MakingaWidgetwithDashcode/MakingaWidgetwithDashcode.html), it appears that I should be able to access an object called "widget".
However, when I tried, I get the error message saying that widget is undefined. I've also tried "window.widget" and it gives me the same error.
What's going on?
I'd like to make a text in my application a clickable link to open a URL using openURL (like the example given at the URL above).
You use widget.xxx to access things inside and outside you widget.
So to access curl and the Mac and get some data from Yahoo you do as follows
var yahoorate = widget.system("/usr/bin/curl 'http://download.finance.yahoo.com/d/quotes.csv?s=EUR" + interim0 + "=X&f=l1'", null).outputString;
to get a preference key value, stored in the widgets plist when you install on a mac
globalPreferenceValue = widget.preferenceForKey(null, "your-key");
i think in the question ask (below) we are checking to see if we are in a widget and then preparing a transition to the back of the widget.
if (window.widget) {
widget.prepareForTransition("ToBack");
}
this is how i set a preference so it is stored between system reboots (you use a get preference to retrieve them)
widget.setPreferenceForKey(2,"ratePrecision");
and this is how you create a link to open in a browser not the widget
<a onclick=" + "widget.openURL('http://www.wf.com/private/?ID=636');" + "><span id=company-info>click here</span></a>
These are all rel working examples from widgets i have built. Hope it helps. I found it useful to download widgets that performed similar functions to ones i wanted and then as well as installing them opening them as projects, you can import, and then you can see all the code.
Ok, this worked...hope it will help someone else...
window.location = "http://www.apple.com";
